American Zionist Censorship Board did not like a publication so it was simply removed

"After months of outrage over a publication that critics say denigrates Israel, the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) announced Friday that it was no longer selling the study guide “Zionism Unsettled” on the church’s website. The study guide was prepared by a Presbyterian advocacy group, the Israel/Palestine Mission Network, as a resource for discussions in churches, and it contains essays that cast the theology and history of Zionism as inherently racist and unjust. Many American Jewish organizations, and Presbyterians as well, denounced the study guide soon after it was issued in January. "
